Because they were anxious to observe the situation of the ancient tomb, the group did not shiver much after getting out of the car, and directly let people lead the way to the location of the ancient tomb.
Before Professor Wang and others came, they only learned about the situation of the ancient tomb through the information transmitted by others, and at that time they thought that this ancient tomb should be the tomb of a nobleman in the Ming Dynasty, and after careful observation on the spot, this judgment was further confirmed.
After the advance team cleaned up the ancient tomb, two stone figures were found at the scene, and only the tail of the stone sheep, the stone tiger, a stone pillar and many tomb bricks remained.
After inspecting some of the cultural relics scattered around the outside and the construction style of the tomb that had been excavated, Professor Hong, who majored in archaeology, said: "This should be the tomb of the noble eunuch of the Ming Dynasty." ”
"I think so." Professor Wang nodded.
"Where can you see that this tomb belongs to the nobles and bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty?" Guan Tong asked on behalf of some students who did not know much about it except for the archaeology students.
Gu Ming also nodded with everyone, she could roughly judge that the style of this tomb belonged to the Ming Dynasty, but she didn't know the specifics.
Professor Wang turned around and patiently explained to the students who followed him: "In addition to observing the style, according to the Ming Dynasty ritual system, after the death of an official, the scale of his tomb, the layout of the cemetery, the regulation of the stone carvings in the tomb, and the number of burial goods will be strictly regulated according to the official rank. If the hero is crowned king after his death, there can be a pair of Wen and Wu Shiren in front of the tomb, and a pair of stone tigers, stone sheep and stone pillars. Judging from the two existing stone figures, a stone tiger, a stone sheep and a stone pillar, the owner of the tomb should have been a prominent official at that time. ”
"Professor Wang is right, we also think that this is the tomb of a certain aristocratic bureaucrat in the Ming Dynasty. I think you've seen the sketches of this tomb before, and we just have a new one here, so a few professors can take a look at it. Professor Tong, who presided over the rescue of cultural relics in Taiyuan, said.
Several professors nodded their heads again and again, instructed their students to stay aside for the time being, and followed Professor Tong into a makeshift tent.
As soon as the professor walked away, everyone who was already itching suddenly couldn't sit still, and one by one they stretched their necks to observe the surrounding situation, and Fu Wen even walked to the ancient tomb that was surrounded and protected, and was close to the people guarding there.
With the person taking the lead, the others couldn't sit still, and they got up and looked around, wanting to know more information.
The people brought out by different professors are naturally divided into different factions, and Professor Wang is the only one in terms of cultural relics identification, so the three students he leads are naturally a group.
When she was in the car before, Gu Ming discussed it with Fu Wen and Guan Tong, and when she arrived at the destination, Fu Wen would first set up the news, while she and Guan Tong were observing the surroundings and paying attention to the movements of others by the way.
"There is still construction next to it, and they are not afraid of digging up any cultural relics?" Guan Tong shook his head.
Gu Ming smiled slightly: "Where do they care if you have any cultural relics, for developers, they don't know how much money they will waste if they stop working for a day, of course they won't just do it and wait for us to rescue the cultural relics before starting construction." ”
"There are so many people watching the excitement around here, and I don't know if it's really watching the excitement or if it's a fake excitement for another purpose." Guan Tong roughly swept around, and there were a lot of people gathered around the ancient tomb.
"It's not that someone went in and stole things when the ancient tomb was just dug up, I think most of these people around me want to fish in troubled waters, otherwise where would so many people come from this ravine?" Gu Ming lowered her voice and said.
Guan Tong bowed slightly, no longer continuing the topic, and instead walked to the area around the ancient tomb to investigate.
The people guarding the ancient tomb knew that their group was following to inspect and rescue the cultural relics, as long as they did not enter the ancient tomb, the others would turn a blind eye.
Gu Ming was not in a good mood when he heard the introduction in the car that the ancient tomb was found in a village that was preparing to build a large resort, and when he saw some signs in the construction site next to him, his mood fell to the bottom, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a touch of mockery.
According to her observations, most of the large-scale resorts to be built here are projects that Du Hao has recently invested a lot of energy in, and she has heard Du Hao say before that if this project goes smoothly, their Du family will take it to a higher level.
And for the success of this project, Du Hao even agreed to marry Qiao Qingya.
Even if Du Hao was unlucky, he found the ancient tomb within the scope of their construction, so that even if they are still continuing construction, I am afraid that the progress of the project in some aspects will be blocked, and even the design direction will have to be changed.
Thinking of this, Gu Ming couldn't help but gloat a little, and her heart was also indescribably happy.
After a while, Fu Wen, who inquired about the news, came back, and the three of them got together.
"I'm afraid the situation of this ancient tomb is not very good, I heard that the people who went in to investigate before found a robbery hole in the ancient tomb." Fu Wen said with a serious face.
"Was it there before, or was it robbed by someone after discovering the ancient tomb?" Gu Ming asked.
"It seems to have both." Fu Wen said in a deep voice.
A look of disappointment flashed across Guan Tong's face, and the mood of the three of them suddenly became a little heavy.
The professors are here to save the relics, but if the relics have long been taken away by tomb robbers, what is the point of them coming here?
Another point is that whether you are a professor or a student, it is one thing to come here to practice, and another to want to get certain rewards. If the rescue of cultural relics is effective, it will not only be beneficial to the future development of the participants, but may even be commended and rewarded by the state, which is not something that just anyone can get.
When it was almost dark, the professors finally came out of their tents, and those who had been hungry all day began to eat.
Because the village has basically been demolished, there is no place for everyone to stay, so men and women can only live in makeshift tents for the time being.
Fortunately, the weather was not hot at this time, otherwise I would have to suffer a crime.
After dinner, Professor Wang called Gu Ming and the three of them aside.
Fu Wen consciously told Professor Wang the information collected by the three of them in the afternoon, and he described it very objectively, without a trace of his own subjective opinion, so as not to affect the professor's judgment.
After hearing this, Professor Wang nodded with satisfaction, expressed the affirmation of the three students, and said, "The three of you have done a good job, but do you know why in addition to the archaeology major came this time, our cultural relics identification major also came?" ”
"Is it to determine the value of the things in the tomb?" Guan Tong heard Professor Wang's question, and said uncertainly.
Professor Wang smiled without saying a word, turning his gaze to Gu Ming and Fu Wen.
Fu Wen lowered his head and thought quickly.
Gu Ming thought of the suspicious people he saw around him in the afternoon, his heart moved, and he suddenly said loudly: "Is it to buy the cultural relics that were stolen before?" ”
Professor Wang gave Gu Ming an approving look, lowered his voice and said, "We came here to inspect the ancient tombs secondly, and the main purpose is those cultural relics that have been taken from the ancient tombs. ”
